The dude's career was on the downturn before his fake hate crime. He only tried that to get a raise on Empire and to keep them from writing him out of the show. The film project the article mentions (a love story between two black men) had a budget of less than 200k and has yet found no distributor. Dude's a loser.

What a courageous man! After the white-pale-black Nigerian MAGA brothers lynched him, for all those whose cares have been our concern, the work goes on, the cause endures, the hope still lives, and the dream shall never die!

Two black guys falling in love? Sounds like a Hallmark or Lifetime Christmas movie. They’re doing about 70 this season, so there should be room in the schedule for next year.

Was it a reality prison show?

He already had established political connections due to family so he thinks he’s a made man. Quite the level of entitlement.
Oh, but HE’S the oppressed one.

He’s a terrible actor. He probably had to do what kamala did to get into politics.

He pitched the idea of portraying the deceased member of Milli Vanilli, but the surviving member didn't want anything to do with him. /s
